I’m a happy lemm.ee user and a mod of a small community hosted there. I’m also subscribed to a bunch of communities on lemm.ee. Sadly, they have just announced that they will be shutting it down. I understand that I can open an account on another instance and subscribe to the same communities. For my own community, I can probably re-create it on my new instance and DM every subscriber. But how do I find all the communities from lemm.ee in their new places? I’d like some practical advice.
Well, the managed communities will pin posts and update their descriptions before the shut down happens, and those details will federate to every instance with users that subscribe to the communities.
